BONK Craze Sends Solana Saga Phones Skyrocketing in Value
Saga, Solana's smartphone, which debuted earlier this year at a modest $600, has undergone a seismic shift in value, soaring an astonishing 500% on the resale market.
Surpassing all expectations, its current asking price stands at an eye-watering $3,000, a staggering leap that defies all conventional forecasts.
Fueling this unprecedented surge is the unlikely catalyst of the BonkInu (BONK) meme token, which, in a dizzying ascent since October, has skyrocketed by a staggering 19,103%.
What’s particularly intriguing is the symbiotic link between this blockchain-based phone and the digital meme token: each possessor of the Solana Saga smartphone is entitled to a jaw-dropping windfall of 30 million BONKs, unexpectedly turning their device into a lucrative investment. At the peak of BonkInu’s meteoric climb, this windfall translated into a substantial $1,000 profit for these fortunate owners.
Driven by the anticipation of further valuation spikes in Solana and BONK, enthusiasts are scrambling to secure these limited-edition smartphones, banking on the possibility of a token airdrop akin to the prior BonkInu team’s giveaway. Adding to the frenzy, Solend, a prominent DeFi platform, and the meme token Samoyed Coin (SAMO) have announced exclusive incentives for Saga owners, intensifying the rush to acquire these coveted devices.

The Solana Saga phone distinguishes itself through its scarcity—only a mere 20,000 units were ever manufactured. This scarcity has elevated the Solana Saga to a status of a coveted collector’s item, amplifying its allure and consequently, propelling its astronomical surge in price.
